In Vitro Models for the Study of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is regarded as the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome and is an important and common cause of chronic liver disease with a potential to develop end-stage liver disease. While important advances in the pathophysiology have been achieved using genetically modified and diet-induced animal models, in-vitro models have been only recently proposed. These models include primary culture and immortalized cell lines. Here we critically review the characteristics of the in vitro models described, the advantages and limitations of the in vitro approach, and the results derived.

Given earlier clinical and in vitro activities of P. kurroa and picroside II, the results in HepG2 cells gain relevance.
“But in view of the earlier clinical and in vitro activities shown by P. kurroa and picroside II, these results in HepG2 cells gain relevance [48].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
